Super-Kid

The wall and floor stains labelled 9a and 9b were not
attributed to the little boy whose DNA profile is listed as profile L. This is
either pure invention on your part, or a complete inability to read and
understand the files. Several hairs were recovered which matched the same DNA
profile, and that presumably is what you are referring to, unless you were
setting out to deliberately mislead.

The fact that there were hairs found which were shed by
previous residents also gives the lie to the bollocks about the flat being
subject to ''exaggerated cleaning''

Where do you get the idea that there was less DNA from
former residents than expected? Support this claim with references please (she
can't, so don't get your hopes up)

You can't ''selectively clean'' a room of the DNA of one
individual whilst leaving others behind.

Nothing like starting the new season with Insane!

Why did we do it?

Because Insane, as s/he has done before on other
occasions and for which we’re immensely grateful, has, with this particular
comment, showed us the path to show you what we’ve always suspected but haven’t been able to, at least up to now, do with the clarity which you know we like to substantiate our statements: UK's Forensic Science Service (FSS) has NOT been, in our opinion, as transparent as it should about the Maddie case.

Thank you, Insane, without your comment we wouldn't have revisited this issue.

And as you'll see later in the post, the proof that we did revisit the subject because of it is that we detected an "imprecision" made in our "Clean Party Floor" Phenomenon" post which we know have corrected.

So a big "thank you" to Insane in order, indeed!

We have always wanted to clarify what samples exactly were
collected from the stains in Apartment’s 5A’s East and North walls as per picture above.

To start with, Insane is somewhat right when s/he says “there were no
''blood splatters'' recovered from apartment 5a” but that is if you want to be
a hard purist bordering some sort of radical, or convenient, fundamentalism
about conclusions.

In fact, nowhere in the PJ Files' FSS' Final Report, does it explicitly say
that it was “blood” that was what was collected with the various swabs taken by
PJ’s LPC from the referred walls. And floor. And couch.

For the newcomers, LPC is the acronym for Laboratório de Polícia Científica
(Scientific Police Laboratory) which is, we would risk saying, the Portuguese
equivalent to UK’s FSS.

The FSS' Final Report was supposed to wrap up and conclude about all forensic data within the PJ Files.

So although in the the PJ Files the word "blood" does appear directly related with the DNA vestiges found in Apartment 5A, its conclusive forensic document doesn't mention it.

But the FSS' Final Report also doesn’t say the stains found aren’t blood.

It simply doesn’t say what the stains are made of.

It’s common and popular knowledge, even for those who haven’t followed
the case after 2008, that specialized UK Police dogs signaled the existence of blood
and cadaverine inside apartment
5A.

For the hard purist bordering some sort of radical, or
convenient, fundamentalism, AKA Black Hats, the dogs signaled the EVENTUAL existence of blood
and cadaverine, but for the rest of us, the agenda-free, logical, reasonable and
rational people, they did signal the existence of blood and cadaverine.

But irrelevant of each one’s opinion, or convenient opinion,
on this subject, the fact is that these specialized dogs reacted inside apartment 5A to a stimulus
when in certain precise locations: the area near the walls referred and the bedroom closet.

For us agenda-free, logical, reasonable and rational people
the dogs reacted to the stimulus each one was trained to react to: one to blood,
the other to cadaverine.

The BH say that the reactions from these
specialized dogs are absolutely unreliable and so should be minimized or,
better, totally ignored, as they don’t prove any existence of either cadaverine
or blood.

To the BH the dogs’ reactions could have been due to
an infinite number of possibilities including external and purposefully
induced stimuli just to incriminate the McCanns.

Facts are facts and let’s stick to facts and the fact is
that the dogs reacted in those locations.

Another fact is that LPC was sent into that apartment just because
of the dogs, as per PJ Files' page 2191(1) :

"For the effects seen convenient, it’s my duty to bring to
your knowledge and in accordance with superior determination, today, around
20H00, LPC Assistant-Specialists, Mr Fernando Viegas and Mr Lino Rodrigues, after
seeing the recorded images referring to the canine inspection conducted on the
past day of 31/07/2007 in the apartment 5 A of the Ocean Club Urbanization, adequately
shown in document joined in the inquiry, proceeded in the collection of the tiles where the dogs used in the diligence marked the eventual existence of
hematic vestiges, as well as the permanence of a cadaver in that same location."

So, if there had been no dogs’ reactions then the LPC wouldn’t
have collected a series of swabs from that particular area as listed in PJ Files' pages 2006 – 2007:

“IA - Stain on the floor recovered with a dry swab;

1B - Stain on the floor recovered with swab with distilled
water;

2A - Stain on the floor recovered with a dry swab;

2B - Stain on the floor recovered with swab with distilled
water:

3A - Stain on the floor recovered with a dry swab;

3B - Stain on the floor recovered with swab with distilled
water;

4A - Stain on the wall recovered with a dry swab;

4B - Stain on the wall recovered with swab with distilled
water;

5A - Stain on the wall recovered with a dry swab;

5B - Stain on the wall recovered with swab with distilled
water;

6A - Stain on the wall recovered with a dry swab;

6B - Stain on the wall recovered with swab with distilled
water;

7A - Stain on the wall recovered with a dry swab;

7B - Stain on the wall recovered with swab with distilled
water;

8A - Stain on the wall recovered with a dry swab;

8B - Stain on the wall recovered with swab with distilled
water;

9A - Stain on the wall recovered with a dry swab;

9B - Stain on the wall recovered with swab with distilled
water;

10A - Stain on the wall recovered with a dry swab;

10B - Stain on the wall recovered with swab with distilled
water;

11A - Stain on the wall recovered with a dry swab;

11B - Stain on the wall recovered with swab with distilled
water;

12A - Stain on the wall recovered with a dry swab;

12B - Stain on the wall recovered with swab with distilled
water;

13A - Stain on the wall recovered with a dry swab;

13B - Stain on the wall recovered with swab with distilled
water;

14A - Stain on the back of the sofa recovered with a dry
swab;

14B - Stain on the back of the sofa recovered with swab with
distilled water;

15A - Stain on the back of the sofa recovered with a dry
swab;

15B - Stain on the back of the sofa recovered with swab with
distilled water;"

So we basically have 2 kinds of swabs from each stain, one dry and the other
with distilled water.

PJ Files' pages 2192 to 2203 give us a very detailed visual report of
the origins of each of these swabs. So there's absolutely no doubt as to what each swab means and exactly where it came from.

However it is quite puzzling to see such a thorough and precise reader of the PJ Files, as apparently Insane proclaims to be, miss the opportunity to correct us when we said:

"If one doesn't forget that the Ocean Club cleaners aren't exactly "expert cleaners" one must ask why also the lack
of expected amount of forensic data from former tourists in that apartment and, in particular, in that room?

We have, as far as we know, the evidence of the stain attributed to a 3 yr old. The wall and floor stains 9a&b are also attributed to him, which would contradict the blood splatters being from Paul
“Labrador” Gordon in the living room who is said to have walked around the apartment trying to staunch bleeding after cutting himself shaving."

Insane does quote us by saying "The wall and floor stains labelled 9a and 9b" but doesn't correct us and by not correcting us makes the exact same imprecision. .

It is very clear that swabs 9 (A & B) are both from the same location and that is on the wall.

Nothing from the floor relates with swabs 9 (A & B).

But the point we made and that Insane so desperately tried, in vain, to contradict, remains unaltered: the stain from which swabs 9 (A & B) came from were attributed to Paul Gordon's son, C****** Gordon (CG).

As we said in our response to the said comment in the post it referred to, ""Clean Party Floor" Phenomenon", that Insane is
wrong when s/he says: “The wall and floor stains labelled 9a and 9b were not
attributed to the little boy whose DNA profile is listed as profile L. This is
either pure invention on your part, or a complete inability to read and
understand the files”.

Insane is wrong and not just imprecise. FSS, by the words of JOHN ROBERT LOWE BSc
CBiol MlBiol RFP disagrees with Insane about swabs 9 (2):

"For informative purposes only, a database from voluntary
samples was constructed with the purpose of monitoring information. In
accordance with the available records, the database is made up 286 voluntary
samples, four of which were rejected. The voluntary DNA profiles were compared
with the following samples:

286A/2007/CRL1A & B

286A/2007/CRL4A & B

286A/2007/CRL9A & B

286A/72007/CRL16A & B

The voluntary samples were also compared with 'crime stain
1', a DNA profile obtained by Portuguese scientists using their DNA profiling
system. The profile was recovered from a suspicion of semen collected from a blanket
in apartment 5.

From the available records, I conclude that 281 voluntary
samples were eliminated as contributors of DNA to the above list of profile
search, since its profile did not coincide with the profile sought;
consequently, the DNA can not have originated from them.

I further conclude that, the DNA profiles obtained from the
'crime stain 1' and 286A/2007/CRL9A & B coincide with CG (bar
code 51156964). I believe that CG was born on 29 January 2005, and
if this is the case, in my opinion, the DNA profile obtained in 'crime stain 1'
is not the result of semen found on the blanket."

286 voluntary samples?

We sure would like to see that list.

Just looking at the staggering number of samples of almost three hundred, one can't help but wonder their origin.

How many were taken from guests and PdL ex-Pats?

We know that Rajinder Balu and Neil Berry were swabbed for samples but we sure would like to know who else, guest or ex-Pat, also was...

If that was the case, why? Were they, then, considering the possibility of relating guests and ex-Pats with DNA found on the walls of the apartment Maddie disappeared from?

And why were 4 samples rejected? Just because?

All this is pure speculation as we don't know who is on that list.

From John Lowe’s words quoted above, it seems he has somewhat of a hesitation about CG’s birth date but none whatsoever that swabs
9 (A & B) are from this particular little boy, thus very firmly and adamantly contradicting
Insane who we think should revise his/hers “this is either pure invention on
your part, or a complete inability to read and understand the files.“

And this very CERTAINTY is a very puzzling one for the FSS to have when it says it has it!

Of the listed, swabs 4 to 13 were taken from the East (4, 5, 6 and 13) and North
(7 to 12) walls of the apartment.

As we have said, fortunately for us all, the LPC did do a very detailed
photographic report of this diligence. One particular photo proves to be of
particular significance::

It shows clearly the floor tiles.

These floor tiles, as you’ll hopefully see in later posts, are, in our opinion of capital
importance in determining the probable cause of Maddie’s death. But that, as we said, is for
later.

Today we want to focus that these tiles are standard in size: 30 cm x 30
cm.

We can then use these tiles as the baseline to a grid that
we can superimpose and determine with an acceptable degree of precision the
dimensions of the space which we are talking about: the East wall is 3 metres
long and the North wall 60 centimetres.

CG, if born on 29 January 2005 would have been 2 yrs and 3
months old when he was in that apartment. Another imprecision made on the "Clean Party Floor" Phenomenon"post: we said he was 3 yrs old.

This imprecision about CG's age is of particular importance as a 3 yr old male is significantly taller than a 2 yr and 3 month one.

The average height for a 2yr male is 34,2 inches or 87
centimetres.

This is how the height of CG would relate with the location of stain 9:

Remember also that contrary to what we believe in but according with
what the Black Hats want you to believe, the FSS worked under the assumption
that the apartment wasn’t meticulously cleaned. So all the stains found there are all
the stains there were, for the FSS, ever there to be found.

As you know, we believe that on the early evening of May
3rd, 2007 there was an immense amount of biological evidence that could have been
retrieved.

This amount of evidence was substantially diminished with the first
cleaning done on that somenight by the
T9, but we're sure that there certainly remained a significant amount that a team of forensic
experts could retrieve if it was looking to find evidence of a death instead of
being pressured into pursuing an absurd bogus abduction theory.

But after the specialized cleaning team, who we suppose to have been the "6-cleaners", was done with the
apartment only the evidence that slipped through the cracks could have been
found. And it was found, may we remind you again, because of the dogs.

No dogs and we wouldn’t be talking now about stain #9, or
CG's stain.

So, for the FSS, the listed stains are all the biological
evidence there ever was on those walls related to this case.

This begs the fundamental question: in which possible, plausible,
logical, reasonable, rational and realistic scenario is a 2yr old little boy able
to leave a tiny amount of his DNA up on a wall where he can’t possibly reach?

Let us debunk immediately what we think is, after certainly putting
some thought into it, the most likely BHanswer to the question we’ve
just made: it’s simple, the little boy perched himself on the couch and leaned against
the wall.

First, we don’t think a fingerprint or a palmprint leaves
sufficient traces of DNA on any surface. We’ve never seen in any of the very popular and modern police TV series,
including those specialized in forensics, anyone testing a fingerprint for DNA.

The floor tiles, those very important and significant floor
tiles also allow us to determine, again with an acceptable degree of precision
the dimensions of the couches present in apartment 5A: 1,60 cm x 80 cm.

Someone perching himself on one of the ends of one of these couches would be about 60 cm from the ground.

The fact that the couch is 160 cm long means that that between the couch and the North wall there
was a space of 70 cm, this, in case the couch
was centered.

However, this space could be wider as it would be natural to "de-centre" couch A away from the North wall because of the relative position of couch B.

Realistically this space would be between 70 to 80 cm. But we
like to play the odds always against us, so we’ll stick to the 70 cm.

We will disregard completely the fact that a 2yr old wouldn't have the motor skills required to be able to get himself in
such a position, nor ask how would he get out of it without hurting himself and we’ll even pretend that
we aren't aware that the couch would slide away from the wall and cause the little boy to fall.

We’ll just say it’s impossible for
the little boy to reach the place where UK's Forensic Science Service says he has left his DNA.

If it was possible, which it isn’t, for the little boy to perch
himself on the couch and lean against the wall, then one would have to ask what
kind of DNA sample did he leave in those circumstances?

Did he spit against the
wall?

Again, if it was possible, which it isn’t, for the little
boy to perch himself on the couch and lean against the wall, then one would have
to ask how did he leave so little of his DNA, in such an odd location, in said
circumstances?

It rules out spitting, even if you even had even considered it.

And, no, no use saying that CGsecretly wears a cape and is able to fly.

It's simply not a possible,
nor a plausible, nor a logical, nor a reasonable, nor a rational or even a realistic scenario.

Ifa possible,
nor a plausible, nor a logical, nor a reasonable, nor a rational or even a realistic reason cannot be presented to explain how CG, a 2yr old boy, left his DNA in a very little, if ever, used corner of an apartment at an height he can't possibly reach as UK's FSS, via John Lowe, clearly states that he does, then we can only conclude that this statement is, in the very least, very questionable.

By the way, one thing John Lowe was able to achieve with his certainty in attributing stain 9 to CG was to blow to smithereensall and any conspiracy theorieswhereby these stains could have been
planted just to incriminate the McCanns.

Namely that this dastardly criminal deed of introducing false evidence could have been perpetrated by Mr Amaral.

Well, according with John Lowe's written statement for that to have happened
it would necessarily mean that whoever intended to plant such false evidence, more precisely stain 9, would, somehow, have gotten hold of some
of CG's DNA then having been able to get into the apartment and then put CG's DNA up on the North wall.

Mr. Amaral was gone before the Gordon family came on the scene.

Post Scriptum:

About the fierce battle that we said was raging in the UK and Portugal over the
subject Maddie McCann, not a word. We're enjoying too much watching all the skirmishes
and the squirming to spoil our fun.

Post-post Scriptum:

We have received the following comment from Anon #17:

"Anonymous has left a new comment on your post "Super-Kid":

Just a thought: when my son was aged 2-3 he still liked to be carried. If CG was being carried or lifted by an adult perhaps he would have been able to reach the height of the stain that he is supposed to have made. I am a long-time reader and admirer of your blog, Textusa.

Posted by Anonymous to Textusa at Sep 2, 2013, 8:51:00 PM"

Anon #17, first of all, thank you for your comment.

You have brought up the ONLY physical possibility for CG to be high enough to leave a tiny, minuscule and invisible to the naked eyes speck of his DNA on the North wall.

The problem with your hypothesis is that although possible, it isn't plausible, nor logical, nor reasonable, nor rational,nor even realistic.

In photo 1, the arrow shows where the stain was found.

In photo 2, the star shows, seen from another angle, the location of the same stain, behind the sliding doors and up on the North wall.

Both photos show how cluttered with furniture that particular corner of the living-room was, making it naturally inaccessible. We see absolutely no reason to pick up a 2 yr old child and take him there.

Besides being very, very unlikely (will not use the word absurd out of politeness) for an adult to be there with a 2 yr old in his/her arms, there's still the problem of the positioning of both of them as picture 3 shows.

With some contortionism and pre-planned intent and aiming, no question that it would be possible.

Not seeing any space, or reason, to take CG there by the hand and then, there, lift him up to make the stain he's supposed to have made.

He could have run off alone into that corner. Perfectly possible situation but in which he would have been lifted off there by an adult, probably with a knee on the couch or maybe by setting aside the other one to free space to get to the child. In either case, the lifting motion would be away from the corner and no way would CG touch the location of stain 9.

Add to that the fact that CG's mother, Saleigh Gordon, is very specific that CG didn't hurt himself when she says "During our stay Paul cut his face whilst shaving and the cut bled for some time. Neither the children nor I injured ourselves".

If he wasn't injured, as his mother said did an adult lift him up so he could spit on the wall? In that particular corner? And just a speck that's tiny, minuscule and invisible to the naked eye?

I hope we have fully clarified and that you agree with us that the hypothesis you raised is indeed possible, if you really wanted CG to leave a tiny speck in that particular wall at that particular height, but just isn't it isn't plausible, nor logical, nor reasonable, nor rational, nor even realistic and that's why we didn't even include it in the post.

But, thanks to you, having revisited the subject in detail, the scenario you conjured up in our minds, aiming CG at the wall to spit, did make us laugh.

Thank you for bringing a smile to our faces!

Footnotes:

(1) In Portuguese and as per PJ Files, what we have quoted about the LPC's diligence in Apartment 5A:

Textusa - whose understanding of basic science is somewhat on a par with
that enjoyed by a packet of digestive biscuits - shared this little gem
with you earlier.

If one doesn't forget that the Ocean Club
cleaners aren't exactly "expert cleaners"one must ask why also the lack
of expected amount of forensic data from former tourists in that
apartment and, in particular, in that room?

We have, as far as we know, the evidence of the stain attributed to a 3 yr old.

The wall and floor stains 9a&b
are also attributed to him, which would contradict the blood splatters
being fromPaul “Labrador” Gordon in the living room who is said to have
walked around the apartment trying to staunch bleeding after cutting
himself shaving.

We call him Paul “Labrador” Gordon like
aLabrador he seems to shake his body with such energy that sprays walls
with his blood. But that's hearsay and you know what we think about
hearsay.

But if you look at the cleansing of the kids room under
the "Clean Party Floor” phenomenon perspective then suddenly you may
understand many things.

What if they weren’t cleaning Maddie’s
DNA in that room but cleaning all traces of those who had been present
in that room in the last days?

A few points, dimwit

There were no ''blood splatters'' recovered from apartment 5aThe wall and floor stains labelled 9a
and 9b were not attributed to the little boy whose DNA profile is
listed as profile L. This is either pure invention on your part, or a
complete inability to read and understand the files. Several hairs were
recovered which matched the same DNA profile, and that presumably is
what you are referring to, unless you were setting out to deliberately
mislead.The fact that there were hairs found which were shed by
previous residents also gives the lie to the bollocks about the flat

that there was less DNA from former residents than expected? Support
this claim with references please (she can't, so don't get your hopes
up)You can't ''selectively clean'' a room of the DNA of one individual whilst leaving others behind. You know what the basic problem is, Textusa?

You
and your sidekicks are fucking thick. This was all covered in a
previous thread, but as ever you prefer to believe the shite you have
read in newspapers and on blogs. I hope none of you have children. For
one thing, I'd hate to think what kind of example you set them and
secondly it seems actively cruel to send them into the world with a
genetic profile which is barely a base pair away from something which
could feature as the Vegetarian special of the day.

So glad you are back Tex another fab article with much analysing. Carter Ruck and team Mccann must fear you they know you are so close to the truth. One day soon they will all have to face justice they cannot keep this farce up forever.

Could you please resubmit your comment but without (or at least reworded) the last line about DNA differentiation reference?

You may be trying to convey something to us which is relevant, but as it stands, and we don't think it was deliberate, it is unacceptable for publication as it generalizes what we're assuming you didn't mean to be generic.

Thank you - I understand. It was not deliberate. What I was trying to say is that as with teeth you can discern what region you come from. Maybe they can discount certain people/countries with DNA. Maybe they wanted to? Maybe they were told to?

Amended post:

Welcome back Textusa I hope your annual break was restful.

The only need to be questioning the forensic evidence by Insane is because of what it reveals.. They can't cover it with statements or excuses. They cannot undo what the dogs found. They have to 'dis' the dogs.

Maybe I'm wrong, but about the hairs found in the apartment and sent to the FSS, weren't those destroyed? Didn't the FSS destroy all the samples, with the excuse that the law requires "dangerous" materials to be destroyed after analysis? Maybe this is applicable to body fluids, but hairs?! I remember reading something about the PJ requesting some samples back, to be analyzed elsewhere, and the FSS replying it was impossible because they had all been destroyed!How convenient!

Concerning you Insane/not textusa (thanks God!!!), with your poor and rough vocabulary (I´d say you´ve got a carter´s language (linguagem de carroceiro), you really don´t need to show neither your face nor your gender, once we´ve already have a very much precise "picture" of you:you are a quite unpolite person, full of bitterness, may be afraid and very much angry.That´s a dramatic problem of yours that you should try to solve may be going to a psychiatrist...By the way, I appreciate the amount of comments you´ve got on your new blog. Congrats.

Paul Gordon must regret the day he ever set foot in Praia da Luz. First the shaving cut to justify the blood found didn't work that well. Then the charity worker knocking on his door just to say the same thing Gail Cooper had said. Now this, his son being used to cover-up the existence of semen in the stain found on the blanket in the children's bedroom. No wonder he says he felt pressured!

Insane asked for the participation this Summer from his readers to take a swipe at Textusa: 'Any requests to revisit specific cobblerfests will receive every consideration - simply drop us a message marked ''What about that one where the mad b**** claimed.........'' and we'll get right on it.'His readers had a busy Summer because no one participated.But now I have for him a request of my own: What about when Textusa made a fool out of you when you said that sample 9 wasn't from the little boy?Hoping you'll get right on it.

Just a thought: when my son was aged 2-3 he still liked to be carried. If CG was being carried or lifted by an adult perhaps he would have been able to reach the height of the stain that he is supposed to have made. I am a long-time reader and admirer of your blog, Textusa.

How strange the mutted silence this post has been received by the all those who say they're looking for the truth and justice.I haven't seen this echoed anywhere. Why? Isn't this the proof that British forensics were involved in the scam?

Making mine anon's 21 I must congratulate you and your team in resisting with your one-woman-show. I'm one of those who believe that the only weapon they have against you is to pretend you don't exist.The logic you use in your posts, the always helpful pictures are impossible to refute. So they use insult and abuse.I just hope that you will keep on and I believe you will otherwise you would have given up ages ago!A sincere thank you for all your efforts all these years!

Here's my go into ridiculousland: All the 286 voluntary samples were from CG.Ye wants a sample t'say that semen ain't semen? Here y'are guvna! Fresh off CG's pile! Genuine stuff it is, sire!Ye wants another fer y'wall? Here's anofer... just fer ye. Is it from CG? Only the best fer me friends!

I just thought this from the top of my head...Cameron must be really unhappy with the Syria vote. If Gordon Brown's Labour Party was involved in the cover-up then many current MPs that may have been involved aren't feeling very comfortable right now.Brooks has felt Cameron's sting.

I think Maddie died a day or two earlier than the so-called night of abduction and the parents and friends (those that felt compelled to save their skins) had time to scrub the place down and to get rid of as much evidence as they possibly could. In tandem, they worked on a clutter of abduction scenarios, set up as small theatre (obviously with some cold panic involved) which would raise a host of questions that would divert attention away from them. Once the curtain was raised, there was no going back. They just had to continue. After a while they behaved like bad, arrogant, amateur actors who view their audience with disdain. A kind of contempt at being so gullible for believing their story. Of course the dogs and the publication of the PJ interviews and their obvious lies threw cold water on proceedings. Every effort, since then, has been to make their audience (their adoring fans) love them once again. This has been like an opiate, or balm, to whatever pain they allowed themselves feel after their daughter (and so young friend) went 'missing'. It's this inner and outer conflict that keeps them alive and away from the darkness of what they've done.

We don't discuss here death before the 3rd May theory. we have read all we need about this theory and we don't share it. In fact we think it to be intentional and far from innocent clutter.

Presume you agree with us on one thing: a number of people beyond the T9 lied. In your scenario, it was nursery worker, Mr Edmonds and beach and boating trip on 3rd didn't exist.

Although we have made a clear statement about our view at the side of the blog front page, we don’t have a problem if people believe different things if they are genuine, so if their research has led them to believe death before 3rd and they back it up with their findings.

What we do have a big problem with is opinions. Especially such speculative opinions on McCanns personality being a reason for what they do and say.

Some blogs have a section for debating theories. Suggest you find a place there.

I'm anon 26 and I've posted here before - without such a reaction. Probably not the same as my recent post, I admit. In future, though, I'll just read the various posts, and not comment. Better all round. Wish you the best with your work, nevertheless.

Please drop your act and just confirm that you agree with us that your conjured scenario means that others outside T9 have lied, namely those we mentioned, the nursery worker and Mr Edmonds and that the May 3rd beach trip and boat ride didn't take place.

We love, respect and nurture our readership but when we lose readers like yourself we're very much relieved. The problem is that you seem not to be able to abandon us and, unfortunately, keep coming back.

Anon 26 here again -- Perhaps it's interpretation. I 'thought' I had written just as you have said? That an elaborate show was presented and that the mcCanns/T 9 and others -- their friends or those that wanted to save their skins -- lied and collaborated on a bad stage play. I agree - I agree! You can put down your guns! And less of the insults. I didn't insult you, did i?

Our last comment on this "Death before 3rd" subject, for many reasons, one of which is that it hasn't anything to do with the content of this post.

We'll let readers decide how such a well-planned operation, as you are implying happened, involving Ocean Club and guests, ended up with a premature alarm and the ridiculous confusion about the open/jemmied window.

Surely, if the cleansing of the apartment was planned, then it should have rung a thousand bells that the abduction theory via window was just simply plain stupid.

In 24 hours or more, no one thought of that? In at least having the window open when the authorities arrived?

As said there are other sites to debate theories.

We're moving on as ours is to consubstentiate and document what we think happened.

I've noticed on other blogs that when controversial subject is posted, a debate on an unrelated area often springs up, distracting from the content of the post. Don't let them distract you Textusa. Keep it on track.

MESSAGE to NEWCOMERS

This blog believes that concerning the MADDIE McCANN case the following happened:

- Maddie McCanndied in the early evening of May 3rd, 2007, in the Apartment 5A. We believe the death to have been accidental.

- At the time of Maddie's death the Praia da Luz's Ocean Club was hosting a large swinging holiday (which we believe took place in various locations in and around Praia da Luz - from Lagos to Sagres) in which the McCanns and friends were part of among many others.

- After Maddie's death a cover-up of unseen proportions and scope took place not to hide Maddie's death but with the main purpose of hiding the presence of swinging. To achieve that, Maddie's death had to be hidden.

- We don't believe there was any sort of negligence involved in the Maddie affair. We don't believe that T9 dined at Tapas Bar from Sunday to Wednesday. We think that on those nights they left their children with professional nannies - as did other guests - to go dine downtown PdL. On Thursday night they did use Tapas but that was simply part of what was to be "negligence"that was required to allow Maddie to be "abducted."

TRUTH is Self-Sustained

Think for yourself

Luz - THE VILLAGE OF THE DAMNED

PdL - What a place. Why does anyone holiday there?It's populated by black heroin addicts, people who rob apartments, gypsies who steal scrap and wood, scruffy moustachioed lurers of children, bogus charity collectors, suspicious street musicians, men lurking near phone booths, glasses man lurking in stairwells, blond men suspiciously lurking outside apartments, soothing couples entering apartments without permission, mysterious gangs of cleaners, men taking photographs of children on beaches... And to top it all, you have to queue for a table booking.Anonymous 11Nov 2013 12:22:00

Maybe because you can always enjoy an ice-cream in the rain?And a dip in an icy pool on arrival always attracts a crowd.Textusa 11Nov 2013 12:28:00

I like the Tapas fragile chairs and tables. They wobble nicely when cutting thick grilled steaks spilling the drinks all about! It's fun for the whole family!Anonymous 11Nov 2013 13:08:00

And how about the number of men seen carrying little blond girls in the street in the middle of the night?Anonymous 11Nov 2013 14:04:00

PdL - where families take it in turn to vomit each night, dog packs pursue and bite joggers, guests fall off catamarans, damage tendons playing tennis, have shaving accidents and stagger around apartments bleeding, domestic appliances need repair, shutters jam, baby monitors won't function at restaurants, travel cots can't be assembled.. sounds like THE VILLAGE OF THE DAMNED.Anonymous 12 Nov 2013 12:37:00

Child Catcher

Algarve - THE REGION OF THE DAMNED

“Algarve – Where Chitty Chitty Bang Bang’s Child Catcher found it ideal to roam the streets with his GYPSY-wagon:“There are children here somewhere. I can smell them. Come along, kiddie-winkies!”Algarve, the REGION OF THE DAMNED.”

Please Reconstruct I:

PJ's Declaration for Reopening Process:

"Madeleine McCann

As is the case with any situation in which a child goes missing, notwithstanding formal dismissal of the inquiry into her disappearance, and just as has always been publicly stated, the Polícia Judiciária never stopped paying close attention to any and all information that might possibly shed light on the whereabouts of the minor Madeleine McCann, the circumstances surrounding her disappearance and the identity of the perpetrator(s).

It was with this goal in mind that in March 2011 the National Director of the Polícia Judiciária entrusted a team of investigators from the North Directorate with the mission of reassessing, as a whole, the vast amount of information gathered during the inquiry, aimed at identifying data for which a more in-depth investigation might be useful and possible.

The reassessment which took place over the last two years and a half suggested new evidence to have surfaced, which, requiring the investigation to proceed, meets the requirements set out by section 279(1) of the Portuguese Code of Criminal Procedure for reopening of the inquiry.

Accordingly, a request for reopening was made to the Public Prosecutor for the jurisdiction of Portimao, and approval granted by the latter. "

Revelations

"For the righteous, a revelation is a joyous event, the realization of a divine truth but for the wicked, revelations can be far more terrifying, when dark secrets are exposed and sinners are punished for their trespasses." Quote from the TV Series "Revenge" (T2 - Ep9)

Truth

All truth passes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as being self-evident.Arthur Schopenhauer

The truth is incontrovertible. Malice may attack it, ignorance may deride it, but in the end, there it is.Winston Churchill

The Revolution

During times of universal deceit, telling the truth becomes a revolutionary act.George Orwell

The Revolution Goes Viral

"Once information networks become social, the implications are massive: truth can now travel faster than lies, and all propaganda becomes instantly flammable. Sure, you can try to insert spin, but the instantly networked consciousness of millions of people will set it right: they act like white blood cells against infection so that ultimately the truth, or something close to it, persists much longer than disinformation"The Guardian (04Jan12)

We must build dikes of courage to hold back the flood of fear. Martin Luther King, Jr.

PRECIOUS, SO TRUE, WORDS

“One coincidence, two coincidences – maybe they’re still coincidences. Any more than that and it stops being coincidence.”

Kate McCann

(in MADELEINE, by Kate McCann, published in 2011 by Bantam Press, pg. 328)

Imagine...

"This says it all, Ms Loach hit the nail on the head!

"Ms Loach replied: “Imagine the public believing that you covered up your child’s death and then sought to make money out of it. They feel shame, humiliation and anguish."

Yes, that's exactly what we, the public, believe, because that's exactly what they did! And, their "shame, humiliation and anguish" are because they know we know!"

Sound Explanation for Viciousness

Compliments from the Maggots' Lair:

- “…all the others pale into insignificance when compared to textusa.”

- “I think she should be on the streets and off the internet"

Chinagirl):

- “Disgusting piece of slime.”

(Raptor):

- “Yikes ! That's disgusting.”

(preciousramotswe):

- “You are right. It's a shambolic mess of vitriol and obtuseness. But then they always are. The one that some claimed finally 'proved' who was carrying who during the Smith sighting is a masterpiece of deliberately confused arguments in which labrynthine plots are used to cover how empty the central thesis is”

Hey textusa How are you? well I hope,just thought I would tell you that there are videos about you on youtube, claiming you are an internet predator who stole her daughters identity and prowls the forums for young boys, they say you are welsh!! I think its a case of mistaken identity because are you not portuguese and male? Anyway great blog. keep it up.(Anon., Nov 13th, 05:43)

Conversation from the "Lightless Zone"

sabot:

“Wot Round Table?”

bonnybraes1:

“He/she/it invented a barking mad 'theory' about no-one actually having eaten in the Tapas, because he/she/it couldn't grasp the table arrangements.”

So, because textusa doesn't understand stuff like that, all the Tapas group, the staff, everyone, were lying.

OMG - you don't suppose textusa is actually Gonc, do you?”

sansouci:“Could be Bonny.

The 'theories' about the table and the watersports are really so far beyond bizarre, that I get the feeling that 'textusa' could actually be 'pisstaka'.”

“…How would any of you idiots like it if your name came into the public domain because you were witness to a crime, and some mad bitch set up a site in which she called you a liar, and claimed you were actually involved in the crime you witnessed? Just ponder on that for a moment”

Aug 28, 2011 9:27:00 AM

“…Where is your sense of shame or decency in accusing innocent witnesses of being involved in covering up the death of a child?

I see no shame or decency on here - just an utter indifference to the rights or feelings of others.

I notice no-one had the balls to answer my question about how you would feel if this was done to you - if you were a witness to a crime and some deranged cow on the internet accused you of being involved. You are all a complete disgrace.”

Oh look here - amazing what one can find out by means of a couple of emails to Mark Warner.

You are toast, lady. Finished.

I am going to enjoy this more than is actually decent.

Textusa (Nov 15, 2012 8:50:00 AM):

Well it seems that you're quite privy with the Ocean Club aren't you?

Them giving YOU the information about their own mails?

And you threatening us based on information that YOU apparently got from the Ocean Club.

That's really interesting, isn't it?

Insane (Nov 15, 2012 10:47:00 PM):

One thing I really like about Mark Warner is how helpful their staff are. Really go the extra mile for someone needing information. IYKWIM

Textusa (Nov 16, 2012 11:17:00 AM):

Thank you for confirming that Mark Warner Staff are supplying YOU with information pertaining the Maddie Affair.

“It would be more suspicious if every account tallied. Police expect to find contradictions, don't tell me you did not know this?” (Nov 22, 2012 3:38:00 PM), when providing an opinion on contradictions from various statements in the PJ Files.

“I don't give a rat's arse about the statements which tally too closely - of course some of them tally too closely, there is an in depth analysis of them on my blog, the one you are not invited to.” (Nov 22, 2012 4:08:00 PM), when, exactly 30 minutes later, provides an opposite opinion, in this case about the fact that some of Tapas' Staff's statements tally too closely.
